I used to think global warming was made up. But I'm beginning to think there really is something to it. We haven't had a winter in two years. I don't want snow or anything, but it would be nice not to have to use my air conditioner in January.

Global warming is a misnomer. It's hard to say what exactly is going on, but climate change very likely is. Whether that means on average an increase in temperature (warming) or not is inconclusive.

This. In fact, to use a weather related pun, problems with global warming models, predictions, and actual results have been snowballing. While humans may have a very minor effect on climate (we don't know this for a fact, there could be unaccounted offsetting factors) I don't believe it's enough to cause a massive swing in global climate.

The earths climate has been wildly variable since the beginning of time.

I agree completely. I'm sure Carbon emissions and have contributed to the earth warming. But the earth's climate changes anyway. It just seems the shift has been rather quick and dramatic, at least in South Carolina. It was 81° in my car when I got in it this afternoon.

Buddy of mine's M44 block, a connecting rod decided it didn't like being couped up in the dark little cylinder and violently detached it's self from the crank and piston before trying to escape through both sides of the block.
